World events got you down? CounterSocial has the fix for that too. You can add FILTERS to omit certain terms, and you can set those FILTERS to automatically EXPIRE at a set interval, from 30 minutes to one week to eternity.
There's no limit to the number of filters that you can create.
We consider this to be a healthy part of curating your own experience here. Use FILTERS liberally to make your experience yours! #CoSoTips

Private health insurers are systematically taking advantage of Medicare while denying care to seniors, a new report shows. https://www.levernews.com/insurers-are-gaming-medicare-to-the-tune-of-140-billion/
@bluesbaby I would have loved Oakland even more, but SF will do!
WBNA expansion team coming to SF Bay Area!! I am so stoked and can't wait to go see games... #cososports #sports #wnba https://www.wnba.com/golden-state
@th3j35t3r Considerably!
@evistre Ugh, but not surprising given the way that site has been evolving lately

To All The New Folks.
Wellcome Home !
Lurking here on CoSo is a wonderful thing. If you are one who seldom posts, but enjoys reading, you are wanted and welcome. Posting is not required. You don't need to explain, nor in anyway feel less than, for lurking. In fact let's get rid of that word, and just say you are a reader.
All writers need readers. Reading is semi-miraculous act. And respect is due.
🙏
@LlamaMountainStudioArts The Merlin app is so useful!

Hey hi hello! Are you uninsured or underinsured, on Medicare, Medicaid, or get healthcare from the VA?
You probably qualify for this free COVID program that's running through April 2024.
They'll mail you 6 free tests, and if you test positive, they'll provide telehealth services (including antiviral meds if your provider thinks you need them).
Details on the site. Registration is open currently. I signed up. :)
@th3j35t3r It's your visibility here that gives me confidence that the TOS will indeed be enforced fairly and justly -- but also firmly. With other sites, authority and enforcement are faceless and inherently untrustworthy
@Museek Waking up to that was surreal!
@thewebrecluse Never thought of putting it on burgers, that's genius!

Teenager Coco Gauff defeats Aryna Sabalenka to become the youngest American women's US Open winner since Serena Williams in 1999. https://www.cnn.com/2023/09/09/tennis/us-open-final-coco-gauff-aryna-sabalenka-spt-intl/index.html
Nice podcast video conversation with Francis Tiafoe, Ben Shelton, and Chris Eubanks shooting the breeze about their life in #tennis #cososports: https://youtu.be/SRu3aKTL0qw?si=IUCJQvOXCk_MORp2 /nosanitize
@th3j35t3r The fact that they keep bringing this ancient history up shows that you haven't given them anything else to weaponize against you...a testament to how decent you actually are!
